HSPA1A and heart failure: Transgenic expression of HSP70 alone did not induce cardiac hypertrophy, but HSP70 did accelerate cardiac dilatation and remodeling in a model of muscle-restricted coiled-coil (MURC) hypertrophy with RhoA-induced heart failure and atrial fibrillation [21] and provided no protection in a model of DCMP induced by mammalian sterile-like kinase 1 and reduced phosphoinositide 3-kinase [26].
